PROGRESS AND PROSPERITY.

The community Of Richmond has al
WAYS worked tremendously together
whenever any trying occasion called the
people to the duty that good citizens owe
10 each othe. when their cause is one
that affects the common welfare.
It seems to be very plain thing that
all Democrats in Richmond to-day ought
to see that the prosperity, progress, and
wealth of the city depend on the success
OF the Democratic party
The periods Of excitement and danger
that occur in many cities in the North
always injure the prosperity Of those
places. and in doing that they hurt the
working men most. The safety of prop
erty in the South is one of the powerful
inducements that bring capital here from
the North.
The interest of any citizen, capitalist,
employer. or laborer is to establish the
reputation of the city of Richmond as a
safe and conservative community where
enterprise may invest capital.
When the Republicans tell the work
men that tie protective tariff means
manufacturing and employment for
thousands they ought to mention also
that big factories will not be established
in places where such men as Joe Deyine
preach Anarchy.
And the sooner Mr. Joe Devine
and his few followers are sat down on,
the better for everybody in Richmond
who is interested in Richmonds pros
perity. Those who are only interested
In electing Malone Senator, of course
are not expected to see the point Of these
remarks.

A storm is gathering around Mr..
Chamberlain, the British Commissioner,
appointed to confer with the State De-
par.ment on the fisheries question.
1t is asserted that he has made speeches
on American affairs that are extremely
irritating to the Irish-Americans.
Ii is true that the diplomatic agents
are open to a wide scope of personal OBJ
lection on the part of the country to
which they are accredited, as We know
from numerous cases, such, for instance,
as that of Mr. Kelley. a half dozen for
eign ministers have been sent back to
their sovereigns by the United States
simply because they were not agreeable.
Perhaps Mr.. Chamberlain may share
the same fate.

THREE SORTS OF WOMEN

To be seen Almost ANY Day ON the Main
street of the Metropolis.
There are three distinct sorts Of women

itself into three distinct streams OF females,
streams which flow within definite limits
and rarely encrOach on each ether's terri
tory. Women begin 10 be seen in mum
bers on Broadway at about Forty fifth
street These women are New Workers

what are distinctly New York styles This
is the ground that fashion writer's haunt
for hints as TO the styles of the coming
season. They are SLIM clean limbed, with
hair a. smooth as satin and cut in little
pointed bangs that are never curled and
never have hair ont Of place. They wear
very rich and very simple clothes, with a
fit and finish that speaks of Paris, Lon
don and the very best dressmakers and
tailOrs of this city. They never admit any
eccentricities Of dress, and are so severely
costumed that they considerably resemble
each other and would scarcely be called
beautiful so much as chic. This stream
flows down to Sixteenth street and there
il stops, absolutely and an once, and one
never sees a single woman Of 10 below that
part Of town.
At Fourteenth begins a crowd Of stran-
gers. All along that thoroughfare the
strangers are mostly from the small towns
about New York, and provncialism has
marked them for its own. Their clothes
are echoes of past fashions, their bangs
are famboyant, they carry little hand
sachels and cluster about the shop win
dOws. At home against their own back
ground they are very attractive looking,
but against the radiant freshness and fine
grooming OF the New York girl they look

corner one begins 10 see the western and

rails that are well made but lack I'M style.
This autumn one recognizes these women
by the heii0tr0pe gowns that New York
abandoned last spring They are, as "A
rule, extremely pretty In a picturesque,
individual fashion. Particularly is this
true of the middle aged women, who re-
tain the beauty of their figures wonder

soft dark eyes and thick gray curls around
their brow,. They are neither so fair nor
so rosy as New York women

The ten first amendments to the Con-
stitution guarantee the security OF the
people in their persons, houses
papers and effects against unrea-
sonable searches and seizures; that
no person shall for the same o1ense be
twice put in jeopardy of life or lint;
that no person shall be compelled in any

iov the right to a speedy and public trial

The Supreme Court evidently means
that the national government will only
interfere to protect the citizen where
question of constitutionality comes in.
In the Anarchists case it was a question
of the record only. In the Virginia cases
about to come up before the Supreme
Court the question will be, Has the Con-
stitution of the United States been VIC
lated
1t is quite certain that the States Of
flcers did not claim that the law under
which they acted was constitutional, and
hence we do not see how the court can
fail to decide against the State but even if
II does not it amounts to the same thing
in the final result, as the constitutionality
of the coupon crusher will be brought
before the court in some other form.

The health bulletins concerning the
Emperor Of Germany are daily source
of uneasiness TO all Europe. The rig
ged old monarch is over ninety years of
age. and il cannot be expected that he
can rally much oftener from such attacks
as he has had. The Crown Prince is suf
fering from disease that is dangerous
and the double risk is imminent of losing
both the Emperor and his son. In that
event the son OF the Crown Prince would
succeed to the Empire, and the heavy task
would devolve on him at a time when all
the props of his grandfather's throne are
being broken by age.

OUR WORKING MEN.

apart from political considerations par
ticularly here where it has been urged
that working men who are Democrats
should forsake their party and go with
its enemies in order 10 benefit their cause
We fail TO see how it can do the work
ing men any good to vote with the he
publicans, and the only explanation OF
the small movement in that direction
must be that certain men have organized
system Of deception that has been
worked on passion and prejudice. II
there Is anything to the Reform party eA-
cept Mahoneism. let as have some in'elh'
gent explanation Of it.
If reform had any good work to no.
why can it not begin the task in the Ma
hone camp where IL has set its flag
II is useless to masquerade with profes-
sions Of virtue in any such company as
the alleged Reformers are in now, and It
would be much more manly TO come out
openly for Malone than to attempt at
this late day the very game that Malone
failed at in 1888, which was playing
Better Democrat than Ben Hill
The position Of the Reform party Of
Richmond when laid bare to the eye of
honesty is coalition" just like the one
which ended so disastrously for Repub-
licans and renegade Democrats under the
lead of its distinguished author who
claimed to be better Democrat than
Ben Hill at the moment that he was sel-
ling out the party that elected him
Senator.
So much for the hard honesty Of the
question.
Now let us sec what good it can do
any working man in Richmond who finds
his home and his employment with Dem
ocrats TO vote with Malone.
We explained the other day that Gen
eral Malone could not be elected Senator
even if the Republicans win the next
Legislature, simply because there would
be enough Republicans to elect
another man with the aid Of the Demo
Gratis.
But there does not seem TO be a chance
Of the State going Republican, and under
the present Democratic rule, with the
power of the party growing every day
stronger under good administration
again we ask the question, What good
can it do any working man to go with
Malone,
1t is true, as one of the Reformers as
serts, that the working men Of Richmond
are good citizens, and when the names OF
candidates were canyassed some time
ago there was one general expression Of
opinion in the city to the effect that all
Democrats would vote for any good
Democrat whom the working men would
name.
We are perfectly willing 10 put the
Democratic party in that position and
stake our candidates against Ryall, Par
IRISH, Bland. and Graves. But we want
the Reformers to call themselye, RepubIi-
cans and not try to beguilc Democrats
with that old Malone chestnut about
being better Democrats than Ben Hin
